X-No-Archive: yes Having big problems getting this phone to access my gmail account via o2 prepay GPRS. I have entered the settings an endless amount of times. Sought various via various sites and help forums and tried all suggested settings. O2 not replying to emails. Is there something I am really missing here. Perhaps it is something so obvious. But I am starting to think o2 are somehow restricting pop and SMTP traffic somehow. Is somebody out there successful in having set this up? Or perhaps in the same boat? Here's the settings I have on my phone. All I get when I try to send or receive is a message saying "Finding server" for about 5 mins and then says "Server not found".

Hello, Check out http://customerforum.o2.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=1563 The OP on that thread was trying to get email access to o2.co.uk, o2 were telling her it wasn't possible, but it worked in the end. IanM

In article <9979ce00-ee84-46c9-ac53-a6a2a1e9a504 @k13g2000hse.googlegroups.com>, s.f.oswald@gmail.com says... > Having big problems getting this phone to access my gmail account via > o2 prepay GPRS. ITYWF that O2 prepay GPRS does not allow full internet access, only to their walled-garden WAP portal. -- Regards Jon
